a| Movie by a young Romanian filmmaker. The plot consists of 3 episodes with different protagonists. The main characters of each story become secondary figures in the others. At the same time, all the stories are ultimately intertwined. The first is about the relationship of a young man, Luci, and his girlfriend Sorina, whom he tries to convince he is able to provide for their household. But he has to compete for her with Jerome, a Belgian on a visit to Romania. The second story features Mihaela, Luci's co-worker, who is dropped by her fiancé on their wedding day. Her parents are trying to find her another husband, this time looking for a promising foreigner. The third story presents Nae Zigfrid, who emigrated from communist Romania and now returns to Bucharest to help his best friend's mother, Luci's aunt, as well as to bring the news of the death of her son. Nae befriends a Colonel, Mihaela's father, who arrested Nae and his friend during their first attempt to flee the country. The main theme of the movie is the obsession with emigrating to better Western countries because of the difficulty of making a future in "transitional" Romanian society. The soundtrack of the film uses youth propaganda songs from the Ceausescu era.
